Getter Robo G
ゲッターロボG , Getta Robo G, Starvengers
Getter Robo G is a super robot anime series created by Go Nagai and Ken Ishikawa and produced by Toei Animation. This direct sequel to Getter Robo aired on Fuji TV from May 15, 1975 to March 25, 1976, with 39 episodes in total. Anyone who remembers Mattel's popular Shogun Warriors toy line will recognize all three of Getter Robo G's robot formations from that collection: Getter Dragon, Getter Liger and Getter Poseidon. Because those toys were so popular in the US, Jim Terry added this series to his Force Five anime lineup under the title "Starvengers." Some Starvengers episodes were redubbed and released by FB Productions as "Robo Formers." The original Getter Robo series, though, has still never appeared in the US. In the UK, Starvengers episodes came out on video from Krypton Force under the name "Formators."
